In every aspect of Tracy Morgan's comedy -- from his stand-up to his work on both Saturday Night Live and, later, 30 Rock -- what makes him so funny is his unpredictability. His comedy is a mix of brutal honesty and out-there absurdism, and though it took audiences several years to wrap their heads around Morgan's unique comedic sensibilities, he finally has become a big star now that people can appreciate what he's trying to do. There's no one else quite like Tracy Morgan, and that's for the best. The world isn't big enough for another.

Tracy Morgan:

Currently starring on NBC’s Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning “30 Rock,” Morgan appears opposite Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin as “Tracy Jordan,” the unpredictable star of Lemon’s (Fey) hit variety show, “TGS with Tracy Jordan.” In 2009 Morgan received his first Emmy Nomination for this role, in the Supporting Actor category; he has in four past years also been nominated for a Supporting Actor NAACP Image Award. The “30 Rock” cast has also won the Screen Actors Guild Award for “Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series.”

This year was another busy one for Morgan. In April, he was heard in the animanated film RIO, as the bulldog Luiz. Morgan next tackled the drama THE SON OF NO ONE with Al Pacino and Channing Tatum. The crime-thriller based on a young cop battling a secret from his past that could destory his family was selected to be a part of this year’s Sundance Film Festival and will be out in November. Morgan recently wrapped production on his next film, PREDISPOSED, which also stars Jesse Eisenberg and Melissa Leo.

In 2009 Morgan made his animation debut lending his voice for Jerry Bruckheimer’s G-FORCE, a combination live-action/CG film. Morgan starred as “Blaster,” one of the highly trained secret agent guinea pigs dispatched to save the world. The film opened number one in US box offices and was celebrated by audiences worldwide. That year Morgan also starred in COP OUT and the remake of the British film DEATH AT A FUNERAL.

Another milestone for Morgan was reached in 2009 with the release of his first book, a compilation of studied anecdotes and some of the more serious moments that shaped him and his career entitled I Am The New Black. He also headlined the famed “New York Comedy Festival” which featured acclaimed comedians including Bill Maher, Andy Samberg, and Patton Oswalt, among others. Lastly, Morgan rounded out his list of great comedic achievements with his first HBO Special, “Black & Blue” which aired in the fall.

As a stand-up comic who has headlined across the country, Morgan was first introduced to television audiences in his role as “Hustleman” on the hit comedy series “Martin.” He went on to join “Saturday Night Live” in 1996 where he appeared for seven seasons and created such memorable characters as “Astronaut Jones” and “Brian Fellows.” After leaving SNL, Morgan went on to star in his own comedy series “The Tracy Morgan Show” and voiced “Spoonie Luv” on Comedy Central’s “Crank Yankers.” Additional film credits include: Dimension Films’ SUPERHERO MOVIE, FIRST SUNDAY opposite Ice Cube and Katt Williams, THE LONGEST YARD opposite Adam Sandler, the Wayan’s brothers LITTLE MAN, JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK AND HEAD OF STATE.
